John Proctor

John Proctor is one of the main characters in this play. The play is called “The Crucible” written by Arthur Miller. It’s a great play about the Salem witch trials. John is a dynamic character because in the beginning of the play John was a sinner at the start of the play, Proctor feels so guilty because of the fact that he had this affair with Abigail Williams. It haunts him and makes him think very poorly of himself. By the end of the play, though, he is able to regain a positive self-image. He gets to the point where he feels good enough that he is willing to die to protect his good name.
John Proctor Committed an awful sin. The sin of adultery with Abigail Williams. Abby was a servant in John’s house for a while. Elizabeth Proctor (John’s Wife) Kicked Abby out of the house because of suspicion. Abby still loves John Proctor but John is feeling so guilty he thinks pore unto himself and wants to stay away from Abby for what crime he has done. A scene during the play, Mr. Hale asked John if he knew his 10 commandments. John answered by repeating them answering all except adultery. During the play abbey always came to him because she still loved him. John always tried to stay away from abbey. If I was John I would feel bad also. And try to start a new life that he is trying to do.
During the play John’s wife is convicted of witch craft and is taken to jail. The reason why Abbey stuck a needle in herself and said Elizabeth was using a “voodoo” doll on her, but abbey saw Mary Warren Making the doll. John Knew this and made Mary tell the court she made the Doll instead of Elizabeth. While she was doing this Abbey and the rest of the girls in her gang said they were seeing Mary Warren shaped as a bird on top of the building. Mary was so scared.

He and many others are thrown into a freefall of squirting due to the accusation placed by a group of young girls Proctors character is a many-sided, he shows strengths throughout the play, including his loyalty to his wife and friends, but shows flaws because of his guilty pleasures which are seen through his relationship with Abigail Williams, and although his pride seems to be a noble feat of his, it is his honesty which inevitable defeats him in the end.
One of Proctors flaws as a character is his relationship with Abigail Williams. A man from a theocratic age lives by the laws of god, and his relationship with Abigail Williams is anything but holy. “I know how you clutched my back behind your house and sweated like a stallion whenever I came near” indicates the temptation Abigail was to Proctor, and how he gave into its persistence. The description of proctors actions, which are not detailed are still able to show the motions he performed which indulged his fantasy, such as the word “clutched”. This gives the feeling of wrong doing on Proctors, who already shows weakness in chapter one. This is because of the sense of hears shear negligence of his marriage to Elizabeth, he is breaking a binding contract by conducting the affair, not only with Elizabeth but with god. However the conversation in Act One continues to indicate the Proctors strength to now begin to......

Abstract
In this paper I will show the usefulness of corporate intelligence. While this tool
is helpful in making solid business decisions effort needs to go into monitoring of the
gathering process. Intelligence gathered by unethical means does more harm to an
organization then good. The financial repercussions of involvement in corporate spying
are steep, and the damage it does to an organizations reputation can take years to repair.
Management teams must continually monitor how intelligence is gathered to make
corporate intelligence work for their benefit.
Proctor & Gamble Competitive Intelligence Case
In spring of 2001 John Pepper, then chair of Procter and Gamble was
faced with a dilemma (Tuck School). It had been brought to light that P&G’s competitive
analysis department had engaged in corporate spying (CNN). An outside firm hired by
P&G had engaged in spying on Unilever, P&G’s main competitor in the hair care
industry. According to Jordan and Finkelstein “the spying operation gathered about
eighty documents detailing Unilever’s plans for its U.S. hair care business over the next
three years, including information on its launch-plans, prices, and margins (Tuck School,
p. 1).”

Abstract
Proctor and Gamble is known as one of the largest consumer product companies in the world. With over 170 years of business experience they have also become one of the world’s largest manufacturer of home cleaning products. (Brown 2011) P&G invented branding in the 19th century: since then it has acquired products and companies like wildfire, from Cover Girl, to Pepto Bismol. (Business Insider. 2014) Throughout this paper we will examine whether P&G integrated behavioral, structural, or technological change strategies throughout the re-formation of the organization. We will examine whether or not they used all three strategies to effectively change the cultures and ideology of the employees throughout the process.
OD Application: Changing P&G
How do you think institutions, corporations, and organizations deal with changing times? Some of the most successful institutions, corporations, and organizations have set in place change strategies. Many companies ask advice from OD consultants; the consultants go into their organization and review processes and data so that a change process can be chosen. Then after a change process is chosen by executive management, the change begins. A company by the name of Proctor and Gamble was started by two brothers, Mr. William Proctor and Mr. James Gamble. The two brothers first started out with a little candle and soap shop and then decided to combine both of their crafts. (Business Insider 2014) Once Proctor &......

Proctor and Gamble
Why did management at Proctor and Gamble allow the management to grow prior to Lafley?
Proctor and Gamble has undergone costly restructuring. Upper management has forgotten that “Strategic management is defined as the set of decisions and actions that result in the design and activation of strategies to achieve the objectives of an organization” (Pearce & Robinson, 2005, p. 1). Proctor and Gamble has lost focus of their strategic management planning which involves maintaining the company’s mission and goals and looking at the company’s internal conditions and capabilities. The company became management top heavy. Lafley described this as been too invested in their employees. When a company acquires another company, one is also acquiring the other companies’ management team. Proctor and Gamble over the past century has acquired Folgers Coffee, Norwich Eaton Pharmaceutical, Richard- Vicks, Noxell, Shulton Old Spice, Max Factor and Iams Company. In 2005, Proctor and Gamble also acquired Gillette. No wonder the present management team had to eliminate 9600 management jobs. One of the ramifications of......

that the Gospels display eyewitness testimony and thus renews the quest for the
identity of the Beloved Disciple as the author of the Fourth Gospel. While Bauckham attributes this Gospel to “the presbyter John” mentioned by Papias, the authors of this study show that the patristic evidence more likely seems to support
the authorship of John the apostle and that the literary device of inclusio in the
Fourth Gospel, astutely observed by Bauckham, also favors the authorship of John
the son of Zebedee.

Recent years have witnessed a signiﬁcant number of publications on the
identity of “the disciple Jesus loved” in John’s Gospel. The ever more daring proposals have included identiﬁcations of this ﬁgure as diverse as the
apostle Thomas, Mary Magdalene, Lazarus, James the son of Zebedee, and
even the Samaritan woman, among others. 1 Most recently, Richard Bauckham has weighed in on this debate in his landmark volume Jesus and the

...Dimmesdale vs. John Proctor
Heroes are often thought as the superior and perfect people in society. However, The Scarlet Letter and The Crucible illustrates that everyone, including sinners, can be a hero in certain situations. The Scarlet Letter, a book about the consequence and change of identity after committing adultery between the main characters, Hester and Dimmesdale, has many similarities with The Crucible, a story about an unfair witch-hunt in Salem, Massachusetts. In the two books, Dimmesdale and John Proctor are depicted as heroes despite their critical flaws in their lives. Nathaniel Hawthorne and Arthur Miller, the authors of The Scarlet Letter and The Crucible, portray contrasting symbolism such as hypocrisy and justice through similar but different characters: Reverend Dimmesdale and John Proctor.
Identified as an adulterer in the story, Dimmesdale’s hypocrisy is clearly shown through the context. The story starts off with the punishment of Hester for her sin, adultery that she had committed with Dimmesdale. As Hester does not blurt the name of the child’s father when questioned about the crime, Dimmesdale as a Reverend, the holy man, speaks up. He states, “though [the man that has sinned] were to step down from a high place, and stand there beside thee, on thy pedestal of shame, yet better were it so, than to hide a guilty heart.” (Hawthorne 58). He continues that the “silence” of Hester is just “[adding] hypocrisy to sin.” (Hawthorne 58). Ironically, his......

Character Analysis of John Proctor
Arthur Miller’s ​
The Crucible​
has a variety of characters that are hard to connect
with. The story takes place in Salem, Massachusetts during the late 17th century.
Puritans made up most of the population in the area, and their court systems were
based on their religion and what they believed God would want them to do. They were
particularly against witchcraft, and believed that those who practiced it should be put to
death. However, a seventeen­year­old girl named Abigail Williams had been practicing
witchcraft with her friends in the woods, and basically got caught. To cover up the
situation she accuses innocent people in the village of doing it in such a way it made the
judges believe she was seeing the devil with them, which saved herself from trial. John
Proctor though, is no fool. Once he makes this clear to Abigail, she decides to accuse
his wife, Elizabeth Proctor, of witchcraft out of jealousy because at one point she and
John had a brief affair, and she felt that Elizabeth got in the way of their love. John
Proctor is strong though, and will stand up for what he believes in many times
throughout the story.
John Proctor was pious, fallible, and a man of integrity​ho valued having an
​
w
honorable name in the community. He was a farmer and dedicated his time to hard
work. However, he is a human which means that he made mistakes. When Elizabeth
Proctor saw signs......

...A "proctor" is defined as a person who is chosen to keep watch over a student, they must also maintain order (Merriam- Webster Inc., 2015). Proctored exams are very common when taking online courses, for example here at the University of The People it is required to for students to take proctored exams on week 9 of the term. The exams end on the Sunday of that same week until 11:55 pm. In order to take the exam the student must have a computer and Internet access. If the exam isn't taken then the course will be marked as being failed by the student.
The student is responsible for choosing a proctor and the proctor must be registered with the university in order to make sure they meet all the necessary criteria. The proctor must meet the following requirements: (1) he or she must be at least 21 years of age, (2) be a reputable person of integrity, (3) cannot be a relative of the student, a student at Uopeople or an applicant, (4) cannot have a conflict of interest or have any vested interest in the student's grade or performance on his/her exam, (5) and must have adequate and reliable access to the Internet, including email services (UOPeople, n.d). An online proctor service can be provided for those who cannot find an offline proctor and for those who prefer a proctor service when taking exams.
In conclusion, if I were to choose a proctor I would choose someone like my boss at work, he is someone that is extremely reliable, honest, educated and hardworking. I have......

P&G top 10 customer’s account for 35% of its sales. Thus, the company’s revenues are concentrated among a few top customers, which could be a weakness for the company in the case that any of these top customers experience financial difficulties in the future. Wal-Mart is P&G largest customer and accounts for over 15% of P&G total revenue in 2009, 2008, and 2007. (Proctor & Gamble)
Another weakness of P&G is it does not make and offer any private label products for the retail customers and is, missing an opportunity. The company has been focusing quite a lot on mature markets like USA and Western Europe with 26% and 22% of company’s sales respectively.
